ישראל מתכוננת לפולחן אפשרי של רפיח בעקבות עליית המתחים
As tensions continue to escalate in the Middle East, Israel appears to be on the brink of launching a significant military operation into Rafah, a city in the southern Gaza Strip. This move comes in response to the need to eliminate militants and ensure the release of hostages taken during the Hamas-led attacks on October 7. Despite warnings from international leaders, including a caution from President Biden labeling such an invasion as a 'mistake,' the Israeli government, under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, seems to be moving forward with its plans.

ישראל מאשימה את ארה"ב בגירושי איחוד המשפט הבינלאומי
From Israel N12 News:
"Sources at The Hague said that it is impossible that the chief prosecutor would have decided on such a dramatic step, in a war that is still ongoing, with very little evidence, if he had not at least had a "green light" from the Americans. If this is true, this is another and unprecedented low in relations between Israel and the US, at a very sensitive time, on the eve of the ground entry to Rafah.
Relays that have recently arrived in Jerusalem indicate that the chance of issuing arrest warrants has increased dramatically, possibly as soon as next month.… קרא עוד

ארה"ב מבקשת מסין להשעות את הסחר עם רוסיה
Secretary of State Blinken will press Chinese officials on a wide range of issues, including its support for Russia, cheap Chinese exports that U.S. officials say threaten American jobs, and Chinese ships’ aggressive maneuvers in the South China Sea, a senior State Department official told reporters in a telephone briefing.
Western officials have grown increasingly vocal about concerns that China is backing Russia in its war in Ukraine.
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, during her own visit to China earlier this month, warned of “significant consequences” if Beijing provides material support.
Chinese officials are likely to bring up American support for Taiwan, the self-governing island that China claims, and trade restrictions that Beijing calls discriminatory.

הארצות המאוחדות שילחו בסוד מערכת טילים חדשה לטווח ארוך לאוקראינה
The United States last week secretly shipped a new long-range missile system to Ukraine, and Ukrainian forces immediately used the weapons to attack a Russian military airfield in Crimea last Wednesday and Russian troops in the country’s southeast overnight on Tuesday, according to a senior U.S. official.
The missiles can reach deeper into occupied Ukraine, including Crimea, a hub of Russian air and ground forces, and supply nodes for Moscow’s forces in the country’s southeast.
In a major policy shift, President Biden secretly approved the decision to send more than 100 of the longer-range missiles in mid-February.
Administration officials kept the shipment secret to avoid tipping off the Russians.

ביקורו החשוב של בלינקן בסין בעידן עלייה של טענות וסכסוכים גלובליים
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken's recent arrival in China marks a critical juncture in U.S.-China relations, amidst a backdrop of rising tensions and deep-seated disagreements on a range of global and regional issues. Blinken's visit, aimed at addressing these contentious points, comes at a time when the relationship between the two superpowers is under significant strain, further complicated by the passage of a new U.S. foreign aid bill viewed unfavorably by Beijing. Despite efforts to stabilize ties, the visit underscores the persistent challenges and the complex dynamics… קרא עוד

המאס פרסם סרטון פרופגנדה של שכיר ישראלי-אמריקאי עם יד חסרה
Hamas published a propaganda video showing Israeli hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin on Wednesday on their Telegram channel.
In the video, Goldberg-Polin notes that he was hanging out with friends at the Nova Music Festival when Hamas attacked the festival and kidnapped him and his friends, countering claims that Hamas leaders have made in the past that they did not target civilians.
Goldberg-Polin was seriously injured by a grenade during the Hamas assault on the Nova Music Festival and lost his left hand.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should resign, calling him an obstacle to a two-state solution.
Speaking about the aftermath of the Oct. 7 Hamas attack and the prime minister's counteroffensive, Pelosi said Netanyahu is ultimately responsible.
"We recognize Israel's right to protect itself. We reject the policy and the practice of Netanyahu. Terrible," she said in an interview with RTÉ's Six One News in Ireland. "What could be worse than what he has done in response?"
"I don't know whether he's afraid of peace, incapable of peace, or just doesn't want peace, but he has been an obstacle to the two-state solution," she added.

Pakistan has been looking to revive a project to build a gas pipeline from Iran, which has been delayed for decades due to the risk of sanctions from the US. Last month, Assistant Secretary of State Donald Lu said in a congressional hearing that the Biden administration will uphold all sanctions related to Iran when he was asked about the Pakistan-Iran pipeline.
Pakistan and Iran need to boost bilateral trade to about $10 billion in the next three to four years.

The US military is reportedly using the Ukraine conflict to test a new artificial intelligence technology that helps detect targets on the battlefield using drone footage.
Dubbed Project Maven, research into the technology was initially picked up as a government contract by Google six years ago, according to the outlet. However, after pushback from engineers and employees, who did not want to take part in building an AI tool for military use, the tech giant stepped away from the project, which was picked up by other contractors.
Now, the technology is being tested on the front line in Ukraine,… קרא עוד

A high-profile North Korean delegation is making a rare foreign visit to Iran, the state-run KCNA news agency has reported. The last time officials from Pyongyang made a publicly announced trip to Tehran was in 2019.
Last week, South Korea’s spy agency, the National Intelligence Service (NIS), said it is “keeping tabs on whether the North Korean technology was included in Iran’s ballistic missiles launched against Israel, given the North and Iran’s missile cooperation in the past.”

In the realm of political commentary, few topics have been as divisive and attention-grabbing as the legal challenges facing former President Donald Trump. Recently, Laura Ingraham, a prominent Fox News host, has stirred the pot with her assertive takes on the motivations behind the prosecution of Trump, particularly in the hush money case led by Alvin Bragg. Ingraham's commentary, which she delivered with characteristic fervor on 'The Ingraham Angle,' has ignited a firestorm of reactions across the political and digital landscape.

שמיים אפוקליפטיים: סופת אבק אפריקאית מצביעה על אזור הים התיכון בצבע אדום
Residents and tourists across the Mediterranean region were treated to an otherworldly spectacle this week as skies turned a dramatic shade of red and orange. The cause of this eerie phenomenon? A massive dust storm originating from Africa, which swept across the Balkan Peninsula, affecting Greece and parts of Libya with its dense clouds of dust. The sight was so unusual that many likened it to scenes from a science fiction movie, with Athens' iconic Acropolis and other landmarks shrouded in an orange haze that seemed more Martian than terrestrial.
